Check it out, now.

September 3rd, 2024, Tuesday morning, September 3rd, 2024.

It is the beating the book podcast.

Skill Alexander, Megapod, week one.

Typically, we will do these on days, by the way, of the given week.

It's week one.

We decided to go a little earlier.

This is, I always forget to look this up. I think this is the 14th year of the megapod.

14! Podcasts have been around that long. I don't know if you know that. At the time when we did the first megapod, I think the only sports betting podcast that were around were this one and ESPNs with Chad Millman.

So happy to be around still doing this.

For the second straight year, Will Hill joins us.

This is one of our pillars of the show.

He is the host of the Shoulda Bet More podcast.

And he's also part of the Chris Felica Empire over there at Fox Sports, part of the Bear Betts podcast. William or Wilson, I should say. Will Hill, everybody. How you doing, man?

Boys, what's going on? It's weird. It feels like it took a while to get here. It kind of feels like it flew by. It just, I don't know, time is funny in that aspect, but it should be a lot of fun. Fez is back here for week one. I know he was week one last year and Gil had a good year. So Gilly, superstitious, got to try to repeat last year. That's exactly why we had Fez on week one. You're on to me. Before we get, we introduce our rotating guests, Todd, Wischnev joins us for what is this Todd your fourth or fifth year doing this? Do you remember? I don't know, Gilly. I don't know. Am I supposed to research all the games and know how many years I've been on here? I mean, it's a lot to ask. Don't you think? I mean, I'm dying over here. I'm 5,000 pounds. I had a terrible betting summer. But before we get into any of that, I want to just give

the congratulations that is due to two of my friends on here. My friend, Fezik, if you look at his face,

it's extremely thin. The guy after our weight bet has been keeping the weight off.

And even though I'm the first one to love to stick it to Mr. arrogance, Stevie Fezick,

he does look great and deserves kudos.

Now, my second congratulations will go out to my good friend Gilbert Alexander,

who had a 35, 18, and one season last year.

What does that mean, folks? That means Fade Gilly this year. There's no way in any chance that this guy can do it again. Will he just fall back to 50-50 like it is in most NFL or will he completely shit
